I looked at a bunch of different articles about this pyramid but none of them gave that height aside from this one. It has to be a mistake or typo right? There's no way a 1000 ft pyramid is just hanging out with no public or archaeology interest, right??

There's a picture of the structure before reburial, you can see people on top of it and some tractor at the bottom, definitely a whole extra 0 in the article.
